Event
Rudy's Garden Club Mar Vista - All 7 Workshops!
Taught by the ladies of Heart Beet Gardening, these 7 workshops are short and sweet and cover everything the aspiring victory gardener/urban homesteader/locavore needs to know to begin, maintain and enjoy an organic home vegetable garden. This series of workshops is perfect for complete novices and beginning gardeners who are eager to gain some skills, and turn their thumbs a deeper shade of green!
Workshops begin April 10th!
WORKSHOP 1: Starting from Scratch: Soil
Starting a garden can be the most intimidating part of gardening. We'll join together to build a garden from scratch - starting with soil. Learn three different types of soil preparation. Experience the differences amongst sheet mulching, double digging, and simple soil amending. We'll conduct a semi-scientific experiment over the course of the series to see which methods each of us prefer and which the plants prefer.
WORKSHOP 2: Micro Garden: Seeds
Learn how to successfully germinate seeds for late spring planting, and how to transplant the tender seedlings.
WORKSHOP 3: Plants Need Friends Too
Plant an organic vegetable garden. Learn which plants are friends, which are enemies and how to ensure the health of the soil through conscientious gardening practices.
WORKSHOP 4: Water is Life: Drip Irrigation
Learn the easy way to install water-conserving drip irrigation at home from a faucet, or existing sprinkler system.
WORKSHOP 5: Learning to Share
Learn and put into practice general garden maintenance and organic methods of pest control.
WORKSHOP 6: Decomposition is Hot
Learn about the processes of composting and vermiculture (worm powered compost). Create a worm compost of your very own.
WORKSHOP 7: Harvest Party
Harvest and enjoy the bounty of your hard earned work. Plan your fall and winter garden.
